CAFE serves as an active and welcoming European hub, offering support and guidance to all stakeholders as the European football family comes together to improve stadium facilities and services for disabled supporters.
CAFE will work closely with UEFA, its member associations and their clubs, disabled supporters groups (national and local), organisations such as FARE, national disability NGOs and supporter networks such as Football Supporters Europe.
CAFE will engage with the European Union, national governments and CEN (European Committee for Standardisation) to encourage continued and progressive legislation and guidance that supports equal access for disabled people.
CAFE will promote and share all areas of good practice and present new ideas and initiatives to all stakeholders. The CAFE website will carry a portfolio of useful help sheets, information notes, technical reports, stadia guidance (buildings and services) for disabled supporters. These documents will all be available and/or published as permitted by the authors or signposted for purchase or ordering by the governing body.
CAFE will advice disabled supporters in setting up local and national pan-disability groups and provide ongoing information on football stadia facilities and services.
CAFE will work with national disabled supporters groups and disability NGOs to continue CAFE’s work at a local level and ensure that more disabled people are able to follow live football in legacy.
CAFE is committed to pan-disability representation and will ensure that the organisation is welcoming to all – A Place for Every Football Fan.
CAFE will offer advice and support for disability awareness initiatives and share all news and information from stakeholders across Europe. If you have an event you wish to publicise please contact Karolina at info@cafefootball.eu
CAFE will know it has succeeded when equal access to the game's services and facilities is standard practice.
Our message is one that we want football to extend to all its supporters:
